It is the first film from Danish-Italian director Nicolo Donato, who previously worked as a fashion photographer.

Other winners at Friday's awards ceremony included Helen Mirren, who won best actress for her depiction of Leo Tolstoy's wife in Michael Hoffman's The Last Station, while Meryl Streep won a career achievement award.
Italian star Sergio Castellitto won the best actor award for his portrayal of a blue-collar worker and single parent in Alza la Testa.
